Catamaran Charter Greece
destinations.

Five very different Greek sailing grounds — the sheltered Saronic Gulf from Athens, the Meltemi-tested Cyclades, the calm-water Ionian, the eastern-frontier Dodecanese, and the Marine Park Sporades. Clear water, lively harbors, full-service marinas.

Plan your catamaran charter in Greece. Sail from Athens, Lavrion, Mykonos, Paros, Corfu, Lefkada, Preveza, Rhodes, Kos, Skiathos, or Volos. Explore the Cyclades, Ionian, Saronic, Dodecanese, and Sporades. Expect clear water, lively harbors, and reliable summer winds. Choose calmer Ionian routes or aim for Meltemi-ready Cyclades.

Catamaran charter Athens — Saronic Gulf & Cyclades from Alimos

Athens

Athens is the gateway to the Saronic Gulf and the Cyclades. Board in Alimos, Kalamaki, or Lavrion. Short hops in the Saronic suit families and first-time crews. The Meltemi builds in summer. Pick the Cyclades only if your crew wants stronger wind and longer legs.

Pick the region that matches your crew and your wind appetite — each link below opens the full destination guide with route, marina, season and cost notes.

Catamaran charter Athens — Saronic Gulf gateway

Athens is the busiest Greek catamaran base. Sail from Alimos (33 km from Athens airport, Europe's largest charter port) or Lavrion for a quicker reach into the Cyclades. The Saronic Gulf shelters Aegina, Poros, Hydra and Spetses behind the Peloponnese, knocking two Beaufort off the summer Meltemi — the most family-friendly Greek region for first-time crews.

Catamaran charter Cyclades — Mykonos to Santorini

The Cyclades are the postcard — Mykonos, Paros, Naxos, Santorini, Milos and Ios across the central Aegean. The summer Meltemi blows hard here (Beaufort 5–7 in peak), so itineraries are wind-led and best done from a Lavrion, Mykonos or Paros base. Catamarans win on the shallow draft for sand-bottomed coves the keelboats avoid.

Catamaran charter Ionian — calm seas and short hops

The Ionian is the gentlest Greek charter region — sheltered Inland Sea between Lefkada, Meganisi, Ithaca and Kefalonia, with short 6–14 nm legs and Beaufort 3–5 thermal afternoons. Family-friendly, bareboat-friendly, and the lowest fuel burn of any Greek region. Bases at Lefkas, Preveza and Corfu.

Catamaran charter Dodecanese — Rhodes, Kos and the Turkish coast

The Dodecanese string twelve islands along the Turkish coast, from Rhodes in the south to Patmos in the north. Symi's pastel harbour, the active Nisyros volcano, and easy day-sails into Marmaris, Datça or Bodrum on the Turkish side. Charter from Kos for centre-of-the-chain itineraries, Rhodes for an Old Town day plus Turkish coast detour.

Catamaran charter Sporades — Marine Park and pine-fringed bays

The Sporades hold the largest marine protected area in the Mediterranean — the Alonissos and Northern Sporades Marine Park, home to the Mediterranean monk seal. Short 4–14 nm legs between Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos and the marine-park islets. The Skiathos JSI airport is one kilometre from the marina, which makes this one of the most convenient Greek charter starts.
